THE EXTLAONDINARY THINGS WHICH ARE Now WEING BAID OF 11%, Spectat Inapatch to The Chicaoo Tribune, Wasirnaton, D, 0., March 27.—Oneof tho re- cont mysteries of Washington bas beenthe lavieh manner in which Secretary Robeson spent money in the Navy Department Jest fall, just before tho meeting of Congress. The appropristiona for the current fiscal year wero not euch se to warrant putting the navy on s war footing at the timo, and the officers through whous banda tho sccounts of the Department at thot timo passed, a3 well as unofticial observers, shook their heads doubtfully and predicted largo do- ficiencics. But all have been disappointed. No largo doficicncy cutimates have been submitted by the Becrctary, and he bas, on mora thao ono cocasion, said that ho was condncting the tnsinees of his dopartmont within tho sppro- priations, and that hoshonld spend no more mouoy than was voted by Congresy. Lut now the Houso Committco on Expenditures of tho Navy Department (Beebo, of Now York, Chair- man) has mado a discovery which lote in 5 flood of light on tho financial management of Secro- tary Robeson. It seome that, instead of contln- jug his exponditures to the appropriations, ho has been trenching on not year's in- come. Drafta originating in London, and amounting in a singlo caso to $200,- 000, ovo been accopted by Secretary Roboson at four months, thus making thelr pay- ment fall within the moxt fiscal yoar. Abouta week ago Beabe sent a lotter to the Secrotary of tho Navy asking bim in relation to these accopt- ances,—thoir amount, and tha object for which thoy woro given,—but no roply bas yet been re~ ceived, MANY CONJECTURES have been indalged in by thozo who havo learned those facts in ordor to explain them, Tina tho Secretary beon borrowing money in London with which to pioco out tho year's op propriotions, and tutonding to pay it fo July noxt, or has ho uscd up the appropriation for some bureau, and, foaripg tho Investigation that woutd certainly follow s request for a deficioncy pppropristion, rosorted to thie questiousble method of postponing paymont of some of his bills until the appropriations for the noxt fiscal year become available? Of courss, either of these proceadings would be WHOLLY ILLEGAL AND UNAUTIIONIZED, since, by Bec. 9,679 of tho Revised Statutes, it ja provided that “No dopartment of the Gor- -eromont slintl expend 10 any onotiscal year any sum in excoss of the appropriations mode Ly Congress for that fiscal year, or involve tho Government in any contract for the future payment of monoy in oxcess of such approprin- tions.” If Secretary Roboron is not involving tho Government m Habilitlos to pay monoy in oxcees of tho appropriations for the prevent fis- cal year he would havo no occasion to grant four months’ acceptances, becauro all the appropria~ tions for the current year are always available, #0 that all bills againet the Department may bo paid in cash, Under tho circumstances, and in viow of the plain provisions of the law quoted, ‘ag well ns the deciatons of tho Sapromo Court, it 18 doubtful if Secretary Robeson’s accopt- ances are WOUTH THE PAPER ON WHICH THEY ARE WRITTEN, ninco the giving of them wag, without doubt, illegal and unauthorized. It is sleo reported that othor paper of tho Navy Dopartment be-~ sides the @200,000 of acceptances aro in certain banks.
